Interesting; thanks. # So much for "compiler enforcement", hm?-) Yes, indeed. :) -- Jonathan Daugherty http://www.parsed.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

early know more about (or have more recent experience with) Java than I do. -- Jonathan Daugherty http://www.parsed.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Missing interfaces in Python...

# Thanks for the responses...Looks like I might have opened Pandora's # box here. Could I accomplish the above with an abstract class? Zope 3 has an interface system which is good. I recommend you look at that. -- Jonathan Daugherty http://www.parsed.org -- http://mail.python.org/ma

# enforced by whom, at what point ? In the case of Java, I think the JVM enforces interface implementation (probably at the parser level). -- Jonathan Daugherty http://www.parsed.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
